With the stressful demands and hectic nature of our everyday life, wouldn’t it be nice to get away and enjoy a spa day anytime you want? The good news is that large or small, new or old – any bathroom can be turned into a home spa. It doesn’t require an architect and thousands of dollars in renovation. With some cost-effective changes and by incorporating a few elements, any home bathroom can transform into a restful and rejuvenating sanctuary.
This week we are delighted to have interior stylist Rachel Walton here sharing her 8 simple steps for styling a spa inspired bathroom. She will show you how to create a bathroom that will serve as the perfect place to relax, unwind, and indulge the senses. Over to you Rachel.

What better way to unwind after a hard day at work than in the luxury of your own private spa. Relax and rejuvenate as the day washes away from you, cleansing your energy, shifting your focus, as you reconnect with your inner Zen. Achieving this look in your own bathroom is actually a lot easier than you think. Think natural organic elements, luxurious textures and calming fragrances to soothe the soul and calm the mind. Here are my 8 steps to creating your own spa experience:
1. Add Some Greenery

Bring the outdoors in with a gorgeous green plant. Nothing says sanctuary more than adding some greenery into your bathroom.
2. Place a Caddy Over Your Tub
Place a caddy over your tub for that must have glass (or bottle!) of wine as you soak in your bath of bubbles with soft relaxation music playing in the background.

3. Floor to Ceiling Tiles

Floor to ceiling tiles in calming neutral tones create the illusion of a larger space.
At the same time, it sets the scene for deep peace and relaxation.
4. Light Some Scented Candles
Light some Canningvale scented candles with heavenly aromas for ambience and serenity.
Place them close to your bath tub for an added touch of atmosphere. Must haves are Blood Orange & Grapefruit and Vanilla Bean & Passionfruit - they are both amazing!

5. Indulge in Some Fresh Flowers

Indulge in some fresh flowers for their beauty and fragrance.
Placing them on the vanity will turn a plain unit into one that is luxurious and beautiful.
6. Dry Off With Indulgent Towels
Dry off with the indulgent Royal Splendour Canningvale towels.
After that, slip into a luxurious bathrobe to really create that lush sanctuary experience.

7. Have Some Perfume Nearby
Have some perfume nearby to spritz on the body after bathing if heading out for the night.
Display them neatly along with the bath salts and oils ensures they are not only presented well, but also within close reach.
8. Add Silk Pillowcases to Your Bedding
Add some Canningvale silk pillowcases to your bedding to ensure a deep, restful and rejuvenating nights sleep.
Know you will wake up with soft, manageable hair as the ultra-low friction of silk eliminates the dreaded frizzy “bed hair”.
